Some Guy Matt Wieters Is About To Save The World

Either Way, Matt Wieters is here….and by here I mean will be on Friday.

He’s owned in probably every league in which anyone in the league would read a fantasy baseball blog.

But in case you don’t know, he’s possibly a top 5 catcher, This year. He is projected as the No. 1 catcher very soon. He could be the best in his generation. Brace yourself, I would not trade Wieters for Mauer 1 for 1 right now in a keeper league. That’s how bullish I am.

There are down ticket affects too. Remember how good of a season Adam Jones is having? Well, now theres another possible beast in the line up (prob batting 5th is my guess) Jones hits 2nd. So those guys hitting 3rd and 4th (markakis and mora) now have awesome production in front and behind them.

This will further help Markakis be a top 20 player. 100 RBI 100R are on its way.

If Wieters does hit 5th, that pushes Huff to 6th. Typically that would hurt his value, but Wieters should get on base just as much as Mora, if not more. The only down side is he’ll see slightly fewer ABs.

I’ll be posting more soon, so stay tuned. But to sum it up: The O’s are dangerous.
